About
Rosemount Museum
Built in 1893, this 37-room mansion was home to the John A. and Margaret Thatcher family and was named for Mrs. Thatcher's favorite flower. It remained a family residence for 75 years. Designed by noted New York architect Henry Hudson Holly and two years under construction, the mansion was completed in 1893. Nearly all furnishings, accessories, decorative arts, paintings, custom woodwork, wall and window treatments are original to the home. Guided tours begin on the half hour throughout the day, with the exception of special events and the last two weeks of the holiday season when self-guided tours are utilized.
See why Rosemount has been called "Colorado's Crown Jewel," and why it was selected for showing on the A & E cable network's nationally televised "America's Castles" and the HGTV Series "Christmas Castles"*.

Get Involved
The patrons of Rosemount Museum are the mainstay of this non-profit institution. Each year, membership donations provide support toward the preservation of one of America's finest examples of the Victorian era. The museum also benefits from the faithful service of about 40 volunteers who assist with tours, research, special events, educational programs, and provide staffing for our gift shop. We are fortunate to have the support of so many dedicated friends!
Volunteering
Rosemount is always looking for volunteers for our Docent (tour guide) programs and for other museum needs. Our volunteers have the opportunity to work in the elegant atmosphere of the Victorian era, meet new people from throughout the country and beyond, serve as a museum representative and help preserve the traditions represented by Rosemount and the Thatcher family.
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please inquire by calling the museum at (719) 545-5290 or use our Get Involved form.
